The first step to making this super simple snack is to wash your apple to remove any dirt or grime from the peel.

Then slice your apple into your favorite shape:

1. Apple slices: cut the apple in half, cut away the core, then cut into thin slices
2. Apple cubes: cut the apple in half, cut away the core, then cut the halves into small cubes
3. Apple rounds: first remove the core with an apple core tool, then cut the apple into round slices

🧊 How to store

1. Refrigerator storage: Store leftover apples and peanut in a small airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. Add a squeeze of lemon juice to apples to keep them from browning.
2. Freezer storage: Do not freeze, the apple texture will not hold up after freezing and thawing.
